Come to think of it sure looks like the one from mvs

 

 

Looks like its tidied up nice good job H!

 

Checked my MOT cert the weekend and it expired a month ago!!! Oops! Its about time they started sending letters out as I never remember.

 

This made me chuckle.. got to love Angry Birds!

 

Back in the day I had a white classic that needed a rad change, crispy bird is all im saying

 

Hi all. Spent most of the morning fitting new discs and pads all round.

It was the first time i'd ever done Scooby rear brakes but went ok..........Hopefully.

 

Afternoon guys I'm officially gutted garage rang back today warranty ain't gonna cover the work they are putting it down to wear and tear even though the car has only done 50.000 miles so now I've gotta pay for a new crank and main bearing and gaskets etc I'm wounded as it's money I ain't got

 

Wear and tear?! They're having a laugh..

 

Those Warranties that backstreet garages supply arn't worth the paper there printed on.
It's just a quick way garages can make a bit more money on top of the sale.They say it's for your piece of mind but the truth is it's very rare that any of these warranties actually pay out.
Are you going to take legal advice or put it down to experience?
All the best.....

 

Those warranties aren't worth the paper they are written on! If the seller isn't going to put right I would take further action as the car isn't fit for purpose.

 

Haha great minds think alike

 

Snap.....

 

yer its down to the dealer to get it sorted but he's abroad till the 13th so what can i do

 

I agree with Andy and Daz, that warranty isnt worth ****e mate.........

 

i knw yer i only had it cuz the dealer paid for it so i werent gonna turn down summot tht was free lol i just cant believe they reckon its wear and tear how they work tht one out

 

It's in the small print..
I have been in exactly the same position a few years ago when i purchased my motor.The Rad on mine started leaking water the day after i bought it,i phoned the place where i bought it from only to be told that the owner was away on holiday.
I am not saying this to make you worry all i am saying is speak to the owner when he gets back to try to reach an agreement,if that fails you need to take this further you have a strong case against the car dealer.
From what i have read you have hardly driven the car plus with the mileage that it has done this engine problem shouldn't have happened.
Have you got full service history and does the mileage add up?..

 

yer it has full history and all mileage and stamps seem genuine it looks like it has had a small fortune spent on it from all the reciepts which is what steered me towards it as i thought it had been looked after

 

Have you phoned the garage that performed the servicing to confirm any work,servicing that was done?

 

nah i aint will try that tomorrow

 

Keep your chin up.....

 

im tryin mate hard though lol

 

It sounds like he knew about the problem before he sold it to you, claiming it was just the plug. Wait till he returns from his holiday, confront him and tell him how you feel and then take some legal advice. Your other option is to do what I did, take it off the road for a year, save up your pennies, and get a re-build. Its painful but I didnt see any other choice other than breaking it..
